Well, I don't know how many of you know my character Jan, but I suppose not many people actually know how she looks for the simple reason I don't draw her. In fact, I have 2 or 3 pictures of her. I think one of the main reasons I don't draw her is because her design right now is boring. She doesn't have a special feature other than her plain butterfly wings. I decided the wings weren't that original, so I've been studying new wing designs. Because she's closely reltated to the Forest, I've decided her wings could resemble to petals. So this is what I've figured so far: It's still a WIP, obviously. And this is something I have to finish to change on the references board, cause I've just signed up for Secret Santa But anyway, just figured I should post, cause it's been a while since I last posted art (though this is just a boring colorful sketch XD). What do you think? Do you think it'll look better? I still don't know exactly the colors of the wings too... XD EDIT: I've been coloring the wings this afternoon, still don't know how good it's looking... Opinions on the colors? Does it seem okay? Shall I make each wing a different color?... EDIT 1: It's done!!! :3 Do you think it suits as a whole?

Well, I think it's stunning! The wings definitly give her a more spiffy look. They make me remember Faerie Techo wings, but on Peophins they look much better I'm exactly with the same problem: creating a Uni character that needs to have a normal horse appearence. However, I wanted to give him something that could make him get out of the crowd...

Those wings are GORGEOUS! But remember, more isn't always better. Some of the best designs are the simplest. Not saying that markings and things can't be lovely, but don't go overboard either. I'm sure you'll do spectacularly with her design.

I think the petal wings is an awesome idea, i've never seen it used before and Im sure it will look great. I know what its like when a characters design starts to get boring, updates are always fun.

So you're basing Jan's design as a draft horse too? It looks really good so far. Petal wings do look extravagant. Can't wait to see it down. Hopefully by then I'll get Godest's designs finally done too. xD

Wow, those wings look gorgeous, Goma! ;D I agree with Rhoxi in that simple designs are sometimes some of the best (Dani's really simple, just a white Uni with a ribbon and sash, but people loved her ), but I understand too when you sometimes just need a super extravagant design in there Amara is a perfect example of that xD Can't wait to see it finished! ;D

Oh, and in reply to your edit, I think the wings look fabulous I personally think you should just leave it as is; making each wing a different color would be a little too much to me :3
